Hello everyone,
My Gold Bug Pro arrives tomorrow !!!

Got a question, my buddy's been detecting about 9 yrs and just the other day we were detecting and digging around an old open pit copper mine. As i'm chunking off some beautiful malachite and azurite rocks and were bs'n, jimmy says I never have found a rock that read iron, negative or neutral. About ten minutes later were both detecting just 10ft from the pit when I hit a two fist sized rock that hit as iron. I was using a Whites SST and jimmy an MXT. Sadly we left the roc k in a pile went ment to bring home but didn't. No biggy really not many people go to the old mine so they'll likely be their. Curious to test it on my GBP.
Any Ideas?
Thanks, Happy Days - Happy Hunting!
Adam

goldchAER3- SORRY NO RESPONSE
I've been out with my GBP the last few days and haven't seen my friend. Were gettn together sunday for some beeping so i'll ask him the VDI #.
 

My buddy called today since we never when mining this weekend and said he went and grabd the iron rock. He said it just says iron with no VDI#. When we get together next i'm going to check it with my GBP and crack it open with my hammer. My buddy paned out a penny weight today with gold in every pan, lucky dog.
